Carbon arrows appear to be completely acceptable for hunting now.
So what's changed?

Market forces.

Companies that could not produce them at first started to undermine them with these rumours.

Surprised the MAGA crowd are still using Mexican made Gold Tip arrows (who have done a commendable job in making a product that is both affordable and good quality).

Ironically a lot of the sponsored archers who are vocal Trump supporters shoot Chinese made arrows!
